vs
J.A. Happ
This will be the week of last starts for some Twins' pitchers. Unfortunately (fortunately?) the only relief the Twins will get in return for Happ will be a replacement level pitcher from St. Paul that won't be as bad.

Things are not going well for Happ
Larnach saved three runs there
stranded bases loaded -- drink! *passes out*

No escaping bases loaded, with no outs, this time.
give up enough sac flies, we'll eventually get out of the inning
Can the Twins DFA Happ and get a replacement from St. Paul for the rest of the game?

It's a Happ Happ Happy Day.
Just need ten more of those.
Redemption!
Just need two more of those
One more GS and we'll only be down by 1.
Catcher grand slams on back to back days!
That's probably pretty rare, right?
Apparently, it's the first time that the Twins have had two different catchers hit grand slams in an entire season.
I think they should make this the goal for the remainder of the season.
Position switches to put the fifth or sixth batter of the next inning in the catcher's gear each time.
If we can't win at regular baseball, we should start playing a different game.
I've always dreamed of playing regular baseball.
Steal home. Why not?
AL teams are 0-32 when allowing 13 runs or more this year.
Twins are 0-6 before today.
There's your "different game" -- spot the opponent 13 (no prob. for Happ) and go for the streak-breaker
Twins have tried that often enough.
White Sox, A's, and Yankees haven't allowed 13 or more all season. Baltimore, Kansas City, and Los Angeles of Anaheim are tied for second most 13+ allowances with four each.
Tigers got there first.
well, d@mn
Twins helped though!
Well, let's look at it this way: all teams are 32-0 when scoring 13 or more runs...until the Twins broke the streak!!
To be fair, those other 32 teams didn't have J.A. Happ on the mound.
yeah, the deck is stacked
Nice. Just need seven more.
three
Running low on outs remaining.
gettin' there
If Sano get one more at bat, maybe he can clear the LF grandstand all together.
The Twins have six home runs while the Tigers have zero. Twins had their first not-home run extra base in the eighth.
Combined 2.56 WHIP for all pitchers through 8 innings (do HBP count in WHIP? I put it in there)
WHHBPIP
Isn't that the podcast acronym?
Why do Cory and Dazzle keep going on about Cave's CS? Didn't Max strike out?
We're not making this any easier...
Shucks, now need more than a grand slam.
Grand slam would cut it now.
I say do it.
The team slugging percentage is going up
Nellie was just holding us back
"That would have been a walk-off if not for the four runs the Tigers scored."
Dick Bremer, everyone.
Jeffers is now due up fifth. Three get on base, maybe four to score a run, and then all set for another catcher grand slam.
Sanó out so rest need to get on base for Jeffers.
Sh!t Happ(ens).
